Shaffer Commissioner, District 3 County Manager MEMORANDUM DATE: January 27, 2026 TO: File FROM: Bill Taylor, Procurement Manager, CPO Via: Travis Soderquist, Public Works Department Deputy Director Justin Martinez, Utilities Operations Foreman RE: Declaration of Emergency to Procure the Necessary Repairs to a Water Service Line Break Located at 7 Honeysuckle Circle in Las Campanas in Santa Fe County, New Mexico ISSUE At 7:30 AM Thursday, December 25, 2025, the Public Works Department Utilities Division was notified of a possible water line break at 7 Honeysuckle Circle in the Parkside Subdivision within the Las Campanas Community. Upon Public Works Utility Staff investigation, and confirmation of a water line break at the location, they were instructed to shut the valves off to stop the loss of water. This resulted in shutting down the water supply to 10 homes. The County Chief Procurement Officer authorized the Department to take all action necessary to contract a contractor that could quickly mobilize to make the repairs. TLC, Inc. was currently working in the area and was the first to respond to the scene at 2:30 PM. The TLC crew began digging up the ground to locate the water line break. Additional equipment was called in to address the site conditions of the trench. TLC identified a 24-inch crack in the water main line. The damage was most likely caused by temperature fluctuations. The repairs were completed at 9:00 PM on December 25, 2025. Additional repairs to the damaged road way will commence and be completed after the holidays as part of the DOE. DETERMINATION: Customers were without water with this water main break, as well as fire suppression for the area. It is therefore the written determination of the County Procurement Manager to make the declaration of emergency for the repairs as there exists a threat to the public health, welfare and safety, pursuant to 131-127 Emergency Procurements. 102 Grant Avenue · P.O.
